*****SPOILER ALERT*****


They do look nice, though are they worth all the hassle of being pulled by the police and possibly points on your license for showing a blue light on the front of the vehicle? Whistle

Only illegal if they flash IIRC.

I've got a feeling it's any blue lights on a non emergency services vehicle isn't allowed, not just 'flashing' ones. Mark

See here,

Blue Light Exemptions
There is no authority that issues permission to use blue, green or amber lights on your vehicle. You must just follow the law.

Any driver can drive using blue lights without needing any higher qualification that a driving licence.

And:

http://www.ukemergency.co.uk/index.php?opt...id=61#2011

Depends on your interpretation of 'blue lights' I suppose. and it doesn't distinguish really between steady/constant and flashing! If you go through life with your head in the sand....all people will see is an ar5e!!

Treat every day as if it is your last....one day you will be right!!

Perhaps Martin can start a new Forum:

'Pimp my Ride' or something similar!

Your thoughts would be appreciated.

That's a great idea! It would also validate members who want to turn their Defenders into year-round Christmas trees but would otherwise get the Censored taken...
... and allow the rest of us to make ridiculous suggestions without looking stupid Laughing Tell someone you love them today because life is short.
But shout it at them in German because life is also terrifying and confusing...
